His new job is a zoo and he's ready - director has lots of experience

October 3, 2013

The new zoo man in town knows a thing or two about change.

It's a big reason why the Assiniboine Park Conservancy (APC) announced Brian Joseph as the new director of zoological operations for the Assiniboine Park Zoo on Wednesday. With a massive renovation currently underway on the grounds, centred on the soon-to-be-completed $69-million Journey to Churchill exhibit, officials wanted a seasoned zoo veteran to help lead the zoo into a new era of animal education/recreation.
